Things to do in Apulia from your holiday lettings

Apulia is a wonderful region if you like to swim, relax on the clean beaches or to take a coastal route to your favourite hotspot for a regional, seasonal lunch. Relaxing at your Italian country cottages with swimming pools is also a tempting option, whilst the parades, costumes, lights and fireworks at local celebrations make an exciting contrast. Although holidays homes in Venice and Rome are well-known for their access to exciting events, you can also find these in Apulia. The Cavalcata di Sant'Oronzo in Ostuni, is a major festival for those living there and is celebrated in August. Visit Bari, Gargano and Lecce on your family holidays for historical hotspots, natural wonders and warm and welcoming culture.

Nature lovers are allowed to roam around on walking holidays here on and in the water to explore rich flora and fauna on land. Sea turtles breed here, which is one of many reasons the nature reserve has been honoured by the Italian Legambiente.
